You're listening to the Co-Main Event Podcast.

And now your host, Ben Folks and Chad Dundas.

That's right.

You're listening to another episode of the Co-Main Event Mixed Martial arts podcast. I'm Chad Dunnest. That's Ben Fulks. We're both senior writers in MMA for the Athletic, and we meet here every single week to chop up all the prominent, newsworthy, and hilarious happenings in the world of mixed martial arts. Ben, you are back from your fabulous cross-country ski

vacation. That's right. How was that? It was fantastic. How was the snow? Because we don't

have a lot of snow down here in the Missoula area. Well, you just keep driving up towards Canada,

my man, and you find that you run into some snow. It wasn't a ton of snow, but there was plenty

for what we wanted to do, get out there,

ski around a little bit, put my kids on a sled and just threw them down a hill over and over

again, and had fun in a cabin, all that kind of stuff.

Yeah, good. I'm glad, glad to hear it. You would recommend it?

I would recommend it. I don't know. I know other people cross-country skiing.

Not everybody's kind of thing, but something about getting out there.

You just kind of like ski into the woods until there's nobody else around and it's nice and quiet.

And you just feel your hate for humanity just kind of melt in a way.

Clear your head.

Yeah.

And then I come back down and then my hate for humanity just returns.

Oh, okay.

So you'd say that it's fully back.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.
